I did trace a diamond on freezer paper for the rest of the blocks that I will need for the borders and I think I can get them all with the one FP pattern.

On picking out the paper? I just scrounge up and snap the paper back and it all comes out and if there is a tiny piece hidden, I just spray it with a little water but I hardly ever have to do that.
I guess when I think of it, most of the patterns I choose for pp, have lots of skinny spikes, so picking paper out of them is a pain. I'll stick with my freezer paper.

I can see how my idea wouldn't work for you. I didn't realize your diamond and square blocks were so large. You're lucky you can print as big a sheet as you can. What's the finished quilt size to be?
